Taskforce Kiwi

TFK bridges the gaps in disaster response to help communities bounce back from natural disasters.

Nationwide

Taskforce Kiwi consists of defence and emergency services veterans, and members of the wider community, with the skills, experience, motivation and grit to help communities respond to, and recover from, natural disasters.

We bridge the gap in disaster relief, working alongside emergency management agencies and communities, with our skilled volunteers providing direct assistance to fellow Kiwi's on their worst day.

While our volunteers give their time for free, what we do comes with a cost. Donate today to help us get boots on the ground, providing direct support for those who need it, when they need it.

On average, fundraisers pay just 2% to use Givealittle. This is one of the lowest effective fees in New Zealand fundraising. We charge a 5% platform fee to cover the cost of running the platform. Because most donors choose to top up their donation to cover this fee, the effective cost paid by fundraisers is about 2%. That means around 98 cents of every dollar raised goes to the cause.

Four members of the taskforce arrived like knights in shining armour, They made short work of the remaining silt on our property after the recent weather bomb in Wellington. It was such a relief to know that we wouldn't be shovelling mud for days to come. Thank you so much.
